My paranormal manlove series Symbiotic
Mates is being re-released by Siren. A revised and expanded edition of Hunter and the Hawk is coming out Saturday April 13 but it's available now for preorder at a discount. You can find it at Bookstrand.

Vampire-hawks
and wolf-shifters have two things in common—hatred for each other and dwindling
populations. Both species are headed toward extinction. One vampire has the
secret to survival—if he can get the lycans to cooperate. But when vampire
Aidan Longshadow walks into the Wolf Den looking for the alpha, he's barely
through the door before he’s attacked.

Hunter
Black, a lycan enforcer, comes to his aid and questions him. Aidan offers to trade
information about the murder of Hunter’s mate for lycan blood. At first, Hunter
thinks it's a trap, but Aidan convinces him that the answer to both species'
survival may lie in their blood. Hunter agrees to secretly help Aidan in
exchange for the killer’s name, but he gets more than he bargained for when he
finds himself falling for the seductive vampire. When the research goes awry,
he’s sure he’s been used by the scheming bloodsuckers. But is Aidan the real
enemy, or is it someone closer to home?

A Siren
Erotic Romance

EXCERPT:

Hunter
turned back to his game. He centered his chin over the cue stick and
concentrated on his aim. The game-winning ball sat just in front of his face
waiting to be dropped into the pocket. He studied it, imagining where the cue
ball would need to hit in order to make his shot. Holding his stick level, he
took a few warm-up strokes.

Perfect. This wager is as good as
won—

“Dogfight!”

Fuck! A perfectly aimed shot gone to
hell.

Disgusted,
he threw down his cue stick and made his way across the room to the dance
floor. As he got closer, the hackles rose on the back of his neck. Only
midnight and a fight brewing already.Damn
it, why couldn’t they take their argument outside. Why ruin the night for
everybody?

As Hunter
pushed his way through the crowd, the air seemed supercharged with tension. He
shoved a few jeering men out of his way and saw that Nicky was at the center of
the hostility. Apparently someone in the crowd had their hands on Nicky, and
Doug wasn’t happy.

Hellfire!This
is Rafe’s fault.

In Hunter’s
opinion, allowing the omegas to be used for sex was asking for trouble. The men
got all hot and bothered, and Rafe’s free liquor just added fuel to the fire.
More and more, Hunter was discovering that he didn’t agree with their pack
leader’s methods, but he gave Rafe the respect he deserved as alpha and kept
his mouth shut.

Hunter
stood at the sidelines and took in the scene. Doug could be a real pain in the
ass. He was funny, intelligent and a damn good enforcer. Unfortunately, he had
a big mouth—and a big hard-on for Nicky. Doug was a big guy, but the other
wolf, Toby, a ginger giant, towered over him. The wolf-shifter had a mass of
curly red hair and a temper to match. He and Doug prowled around the boy, like
two feral beasts. Nicky looked terrified.

“Back off,”
Toby warned Doug. “I had my eye on him first.”

Doug’s
upper lip rose, baring his teeth, and he let out a low, warning growl. The
menacing rumble didn’t faze Toby in the least. Suddenly, Toby gripped Nicky
from behind. He rubbed his cheek along Nicky’s bare shoulder then nipped at the
boy’s flesh. Nicky jerked, and a thin whimper escaped from his mouth.

Toby’s
muscular body tensed. Veins bulged on his thick neck, and one throbbed at his
temple. “Fuck you.”

Nicky tried
to wriggle from Toby’s hold, but the ginger wolf’s grip hardened, his thick
fingers digging deep. He’d leave bruises. They would heal quickly, but that
didn’t make it right.

Doug let
out a growl and crouched, ready to attack.

Two fucking
arrogant shifters who thought they could take whatever they wanted. Hunter
snorted in disgust. “Let him go, Toby.” Hunter’s voice was calmer than he felt.

Toby shook
his head. “He’s mine. I—”

“Nicky
wants to come with me,” Doug broke in.

“He’s an
omega. It’s not his decision to make.” Toby growled.

A cold
chill traveled up Hunter’s spine. “The boy still has the right to say yes or no
to a partner. There’s not going to be any rape on my watch.” Hunter looked at
Nicky. “Toby or Doug? Or do you want to call it a night and go home?”

Nicky bit
his lip, obviously afraid to open his mouth.

“Nicky?”

The boy
said something, but it was so low, Hunter couldn’t make it out. “Speak up.”

“Doug.”

Doug, a
smug look on his face, stretched out a hand to Nicky, who grabbed it and let
Doug pull him into his arms. A love
match? For the first time Hunter realized that Nicky had real feelings for
Doug. This could be trouble in the future. He brushed the thoughts aside. He
had enough trouble to deal with in the present.
